It's easy to argue with it. It's like Brian Clough when he left Leeds and won the league at ForestSouthgates approach got us to a final and it’s hard to argue with that.
however, it’s always rubbish losing something like this with questions of “what if?”.
what if he’d been more positive, what if he’d made changes earlier, what if he didn’t bring players on 3 mins before the end just to take a penalty, etc.
horrid for Saka :-(
Give it an hour and they'll be thuggery galore. They were fighting before the game and sticking flares up their arses.
If that kid Saka is getting abuse it’s a disgrace. The kid stepped up when senior players bottled it.
Thought Jordan Henderson had a good game .
Yes, Rio like an idiot went way overboard in his praise of Southgate after we got to the final, and would look a right prat if he changed his opinion now.
Well I’m up in 5.5 hours for work, night all, remember fans probably had a lot to drink, emotional, not everyone is going to make sense or might overreact so don’t take anything to heart in the comments or on Twitter.
no he was picked by BeakyIf that kid Saka is getting abuse it’s a disgrace. The kid stepped up when senior players bottled it.
When do the riots kick off then?
I wondered why Jack didn't take one he'd be first to volunteer as he's so proud to play for England.Southgate said he decided who the penalty takers were based on training.
What a fucking dozy manager he is.
Nope. We wernt fine first half, the writing was on the wall, we surrendered all the momentum, allowed them onto us, and you cant do that with Italy.Nope. We were fine the first half. Credit to Italy they didn't let us get going in the second half. A game of few chances. You have to say Italy were better as a team. We lost an edge up front and you can debate why that was.
I had the thought half time that both teams were good enough to have an impact on the world cup. I still think that. But also that we need some improvement on top of where we are. We were good enough to beat Germany and Denmark, deservedly so. We are good enough to rarely concede goals. But we need that bit extra in the final third against the best teams, as we did tonight.
I know it’s wrong . But as a CB myself that pull back from Chiellini on Saka at that stage of the game was standing ovation material. You can’t buy experience .
Sorry.
